If you like long form reviews & game design videos, I'm your guy! www.youtube.com/channel/UCG4...

So I made a long thing about something I really like. Two things in fact. You might say they were...REVELATIONS.

Let's talk about that whacky 2016 walking simulator that felt like if David Lynch directed a movie with even less dialogue than he normally does! @variablestate.com

It's time to celebrate the 5th anniversary of the channel with one of my few little weird indie games of the past couple years. Check out why this janky, hand drawn black and white horror FPS moved me so.

A look back at one of those lovably janky games that will steal a lot of time from you but you probably won't ask for it back. @frogwares-games.bsky.social youtu.be/zr_957Rznbs?...

Hey, let's chat about Resident Evil: The Mercenaries 3D. What say you? youtu.be/i0I2l2O13WE

Hey, so here's the rundown on one of my favorite Resident Evil games ever! Thanks to folks like @rogercraigsmith.bsky.social and @dcdouglas.com for making it great! youtu.be/Za0384QXy6o

Can't afford that juicy looking @007firstlight.bsky.social game? Well, let me recommend the next best thing in this awesome James Bond parody game by Retro Army Limited called The Spy Who Shot Me! youtu.be/huAiBKNFCYw?...

Jeanne D'Arc's cutscenes are excellent!

Punisher: One Last Kill dropping today gave me a great excuse to dig up all the Punisher games and talk about them! Enjoy! @jymmitee.bsky.social @jimmypalmiotti.bsky.social @gkmarino.bsky.social youtu.be/I6B0lAeVrx8?...

@pauldokidd.bsky.social Hi Paul! I'm doing a video retrospective on Punisher videogames and saw your name in the credits of the 1991 NES game. Was that you? I was just wanting to say hey and tag you in the final product if you were interested, thanks!

Hey, let's talk about Code Veronica and Resident Evil Zero, some of the most ambitious and controversial games in the whole Resident Evil series and why they are probably the games that would benefit most from a remake! youtu.be/7P-lG7nVTeI

Man, that Crowbcat "RE4 Is Timeless, RE4 Remake is a product of its time" really is everywhere, isn't it? Guess I couldn't have picked a better time to be working on my Re4 remake thoughts. Here's what I have to say on the matter. youtu.be/KMYWvNVilr8?...

I dunno if you've heard, but Resident Evil is really good. As in so good even if its failed prototypes became classics and the final product redefined what third person action games meant. But is it too influential and developers have jut been chasing its greatness ever since? youtu.be/0ryp-4T5DKI

Hey, let's talk about the Resident Evil 3 Remake, which just so happens to be on everybody's lips right now. Is it good, bad, or worse, just only half committed to doing something bold and new and winding up only with mediocrity?

Let's talk about one of my favorite games ever in Resident Evil 2 remake and how it may just be better than the original....gasp!

@quaddamnpodcast.bsky.social 's been featured in Skillup's weekly news video. Timestamp is around 4:50! Ralph's been one of my favorite content creators so this is perfection! www.youtube.com/watch?v=u03h...

What if Guillermo Del Toro made Bioshock? Well, Vermila Studios answered that question by making a game that's good, it's only real problem is not realizing how it could've been great. The best use of $18 I've spent. Find out why!
